Hex Machina
by RoseIsProot
With Hex Machina, players can fire spell-casting guns that carry hexes inside amethyst bullets, as an addon to Hex Casting.
What it does
Hex Machina is a Hex Casting addon that adds the Hex Gun, a weapon that casts a stored hex when it fires. The hex is held in Amethyst Bullets, and each bullet type sends the hex out in a different way. Target Bullets cast the hex where they collide with an entity and push the entity onto the hex stack. Block Bullets cast the hex where they meet terrain and push the block position onto the stack instead. Target Block bullets are projectiles that leave an in-game trail based on the caster's pigment.
The mod requires Fabric API and Hex Casting, and it runs on the Fabric loader for Minecraft 1.20.1 only. It works on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Hex Machina is open source under the MIT License, and its source code and issue tracker are public. The first file was published on 2025-03-25, and the latest Fabric file, 1.0.1 for 1.20.1, followed on 2025-03-31 in the beta channel.

How it compares
Hexcessible is a Fabric mod for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 with a custom license, and it is client-side only, so servers run without it. HexIntent is open source under the MIT License, covers only 1.20.1, and runs on client and server. Yet Another Hex Addon is also open source under the MIT License for 1.20.1 and needs client and server. Hex Machina differs from these in its gun-based spell casting with amethyst bullets, which none of them describes in the brief.
